Bank Secrecy Act Compliance Program

Understanding the Bank Secrecy Act:
Ensuring financial security with Tamlo

The Bank Secrecy Act (BSA), is a critical piece of legislation aimed at combating money laundering and terrorist financing. Enacted in 1970, the BSA requires financial institutions to assist U.S. government agencies in detecting and preventing financial crimes. 

Tamlo’s BSA compliance training equips your financial institution with comprehensive programs designed to mitigate the risk of money laundering while supporting your institution in achieving compliance with Anti-Money Laundering (AML) regulations as set forth by FinCEN and protecting the financial integrity of your organization.

Importance of the Bank Secrecy Act

The BSA plays a crucial role in regulating financial entities and ensuring the integrity of the financial system. By mandating record-keeping and reporting requirements, the BSA helps to:

  • Identify and investigate suspicious activities: Financial institutions must report transactions that could potentially involve money laundering or other illegal activities.
  • Prevent money laundering: By monitoring large transactions, the BSA helps to identify and prevent money laundering schemes.
  • Combat terrorist financing: Financial institutions are required to report activities that may be linked to terrorist financing, helping to protect national security.
